   arigato replied to rene76's topic in ADN/BSN

   My husband is in the military too (we are in Japan) and if you are interested in working as a civilian in military hospitals, then you'll need a BSN. They give spouses priority for hiring and you will only have to be licensed in 1 state regardless o...

7. Question about the amount of studying you do

   arigato replied to RevolutioN2013's topic in General Students

   I am not in nursing school right now, but I did take a semester of it about 2 years ago. I had an "A" in theory, and to be honest I didn't study 1/2 as much as other people did. You can't judge how you are going to get the material in relation to ...
